Crystal Heart

"Sh*t!"

Max's eyes almost popped out of their sockets as Sera dragged Lisa into the spirit world. This had to be a nightmare. This wasn't happening.

Max really wanted to get up from this bad dream, but he couldn't because… it wasn't one.

The sound of footsteps entered Max's ear. The guard was getting closer. There was no other option now. He had to get out of here.

Max entered stealth and his steps became lighter. He took a step on the fencing and the next moment, he disappeared like a breeze.

Aria walked down the stairs and entered the hall where Elly and Janet were lying on the couch.

"Where were you?" Elly asked as she looked at Aria. She remembered looking in the rooms earlier, but she didn't find anyone.

"I was on the terrace…" Aria replied, trying her best to look natural.

"I went in the room earlier, but Lisa was not in there. Is there any other room in the house?" Elly asked casually.
